Özet:

 Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive effect of unmet care needs on the quality of life in the radiotherapy process, to determine the factors affecting unmet care needs. Methods: The study was carried out with patients who received outpatient radiotherapy. Individual Identification Form, Supportive Care Needs Scale Short Form and European Cancer Research and Treatment Organization Quality of Life Scale were used to collect research data. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and regression analysis. Results: The unmet care needs of the patients are 66.4814.76 out of a total of 145 points. As the total score patients receive from the scale increases, their unmet care needs also increase.. EORTC QLQ-C30 scale mean scores of the patients; functional dimension is 61.7015.41, symptom dimension is 27.971421, general health dimension is 53.6315.28. It was determined that the unmet health service and sexuality needs of the patients did not have a predictive effect on the quality of life, while female gender, the unmet daily life and psychological needs were effective in the estimation of the quality of life. Conclusion: Health professionals can obtain information about the quality of life of patients receiving radiotherapy based on the presence of unmet psychological and daily life needs.

 Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı, radyoterapi uygulanan kanser hastalarının karşılanmamış bakım gereksinimlerinin yaşam kalitesine yordayıcı etkisini değerlendirmek, karşılanmayan bakım gereksinimlerini etkileyen faktörleri belirlemektir. Method: Çalışma ayaktan radyoterapi alan hastalarla yürütüldü. Araştırma verilerinin toplanmasında Bireysel Tanımlama Formu, Destekleyici Bakım Gereksinimleri Ölçeği Kısa Formu ve Kanserin Tedavisi ve Araştırması için Avrupa Örgütü Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği kullanıldı. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, korelasyon ve regresyon analizleri kullanıldı. Bulgular: Hastaların karşılanmayan bakım gereksinimleri puanı toplam 145 puan üzerinden 66,4814,76dır. Hastaların ölçekten aldıkları toplam puan arttıkça karşılanmayan bakım gereksinimleri artmaktadır. Hastaların Kanserin Tedavisi ve Araştırması için Avrupa Örgütü Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği ortalama puanları; fonksiyonel boyut 61,7015,41, semptom boyutu 27,971421, genel sağlık boyutu 53,6315,28dır. Hastaların karşılanmayan sağlık hizmeti ve cinsellik gereksinimlerinin yaşam kalitesine yordayıcı etkisinin olmadığı, yaşam kalitesinin tahmininde kadın cinsiyetin, karşılanmayan günlük yaşam ve psikolojik gereksinimlerin etkili olduğu belirlendi. Sonuç: Sağlık uzmanları radyoterapi uygulanan hastaların karşılanmayan psikolojik ve günlük yaşam gereksinimlerinin varlığına göre hastaların yaşam kalitesi hakkında bilgi sahibi olabilir.
